Proposal: Integration of OpenAI Community Forum Search Feature within ChatGPT

ChatGPT Feature requests
1

I propose an enhancement to ChatGPT that would allow users to request direct searches of the OpenAI Community Forum from within the conversation. This feature would enable ChatGPT to search for similar topics or discussions related to user queries and inform users about existing solutions, feedback, or development progress.

Use Case:
When a user submits a feature request or asks about a specific topic, ChatGPT could automatically perform a search on the OpenAI Community Forum to check if there are any similar discussions or responses from the development team. The result would be a summary of the relevant posts, including any solutions, suggestions, or official replies.

Key Benefits:

  1. Time Efficiency: Users would not have to manually search the forum for similar topics or solutions.
  2. Faster Feedback: Users would receive quick updates about related topics, and potentially find community-driven solutions or feedback from the OpenAI development team.
  3. Improved Transparency: Users could see how OpenAI is responding to and addressing specific feature requests, making the process more transparent.
  4. Reduction of Redundant Queries: By connecting users to existing discussions, this feature would reduce duplicate queries in ChatGPT, improving efficiency and ensuring that similar topics are consolidated within the forum.
  5. Real-time Updates: Users could stay updated with any new responses to ongoing discussions that might solve their query.

How it Works:

  1. Search Functionality: When a user asks a question or submits a feature request, ChatGPT would automatically search for similar topics in the forum.
  2. Relevant Links and Summaries: ChatGPT would present the user with links to related forum threads and provide a brief summary of the responses from the community or the OpenAI team.
  3. Notifications of Updates: Optionally, ChatGPT could alert the user when a new response is posted in the relevant forum thread.

Why This Would Be Valuable:
This integration would streamline the process of finding solutions, provide more transparency about ongoing issues or requests, and save users time. It would also help OpenAI reduce redundant queries in ChatGPT, as users would be directed to existing discussions, minimizing duplication and improving the user experience for everyone.

Hi,

Welcome to the forum.

Maybe this would help, it doesn’t update live but it goes some way to addressing your issues :slight_smile: .

OpenAI(Problem) {
1. Search("site:community.openai.com " + Problem).
2. Retrieve a list of relevant topics, issues, and solutions related to the Problem.
3. Summarize the key findings into:
a. Main issues discussed.
b. Proposed solutions or workarounds.
4. Format the output as:
- Issue: [Issue description]
- Solution: [Solution summary]
}

You can also have Macros ‘Trigger’ on User Message so it would run with just the prompt:

OpenAI(Phasm Macros In ChatGPT)

This works well in the GPT it may need some attention to your specific purpose.
